Diabetes is a serious illness that requires regular follow-up. We can provide most of this care within the practice, but we also use external services provided by outside agencies where appropriate.
The nursing team will perform your annual check and review your recent blood test, management of co-existing diseases that impact upon diabetes and referral for insulin support where needed.
There is lots of helpful information at the Diabetes UK website.
Diabetes Annual Reviews
Your annual review will consist of an initial appointment in the LTC (Long Term Condition) Clinic followed by either a telephone or a face-to-face review with our Diabetic nurse.
You will be invited via text message or letter to book an appointment in the “HCA LTC clinic”
Please let us know your mobile number in order to receive the text invitations.
